Motorcycle Camping - This Camping Spot Couldn't Get Any Better. (S2 EP23)

[@preacher1965]

@22:08... What a beautiful exit. Leaving in the sounds of nature as the tent dismantled was genius.

[@RockSteady2727]

Loved the Richard Pryor shout out. "Neighborhood not a Residential". Stay safe.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks

[@billymcgee3511]

Thanks for another adventure! Ride Safe and God Bless!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

You’re welcome!!

[@Scootphoria]

Another great video. Each video is getting betterer and betterer (yes, that's a word). Thanks for another part of the adventure.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks and I like that word.

[@palacegypsy3494]

A heavy Harley on dirt and gravel. Gotta love it!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

They’re all adventure bikes if you try hard enough.

[@bikersoncall]

From what I've seen 'here' most of the service roads they seem to be coming into are fairly hard pack and light gravel, for a Harley, you just need some seat time, and learn how to pick up the bike. I'm in Az, out here if 'one' is not ready for dirt and gravel, the interstates beckon.

[@wflentge]

You two are so much fun to watch. When you get back to Home Base, I'd love to call you and pick your combined brains. Get the ParkPass , I have had it for a few years and there is no renewal for seniors.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks Wayne.

[@andreleclere9129]

Great camp Spots, thanks for the sharing, enjoy and stay safe

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

[@KnuckleDragginDad]

Wow what a spot and view!!!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

It was also called the phone booth. Full cell service. Great for uploading videos

[@bryanolson6551]

Gosh, that was a beautiful spot! I love those high mountain spots with the sunset or sunrise being the highlight of the day.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

It was a great spot.

[@billcummins9579]

Beatiful camping spot !!! nice video as well

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks a bunch

[@darksoulscorner]

Love the view 😍. It's our list to stop and stay for awhile. Have a suggestion as for water goes. When it was raining and the tent was collecting the rain water in the porch. Pour that water into a water container and use that for cleaning and shower. That what me and my do when it rains while camping.

[@LawrenceBroussard]

What a beautiful place to hang out for a few days and i really like your REI tent!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Yes it was!

[@billybadass5703]

This episode was great loved the soundtrack with the harmonica too the egg bagel looked 👌

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks

[@gordonhenderson1708]

Paradise!

[@egalitarianvegan8806]

I know from past experience that it is not all fun, but I am a bit envious of your lifestyle. If my wife were able I'd be out there. Really enjoy your videos. Always look forward to the next one.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thank you so much. We are glad you enjoy.

[@LonesomeNomad137]

Our plan is to hit the road permanently in October. You guys and all the other travelers have been an inspiration. Hopefully, we’ll see you on the road.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Awesome.

[@karenshoucairmcgray4902]

That was beautiful. Nice fire, good food, & awesome scenery. You should look into getting some saddlebag guards for your Beamer.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Great idea

[@flyingwithbrian3287]

Nice spot! Thanks for taking us along.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks and you’re welcome!

[@fredbush3404]

What a Life! I just enjoy dry camping, and motorcycles. This Will be idea for us, we live in Eastern Washington maybe some day we will see you on the road. Fred

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Hopefully some day we can cross paths.

[@AndrewLautz]

Nice to see you cross paths with my buddy, Steve Sida. Subscribed to your channel because of his introduction. I also ride a BMW but an R1200RT. Rode and camped about 10,000 miles from Kentucky to Alaska and back last year, 2019. You two inspire me to take another long journey! Thanks for sharing a little of your life with us.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Very cool! Steve is an awesome guy! I love meeting fellow travelers and seeing how they live on the road. They give me inspiration.

[@Cuddleybrowneyes]

You've been spotted! Just finished watching a video by "Saddle Tramp" where he is staying the night at a camp ground in North Carolina. You talk with each other and discuss your channel and content. You've been spotted! Safe travels.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

So cool!

[@HarleysDinersRides]

Your camping spot was a great find. Loved the breakfast sandwich. Cheers and be safe

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

This on was fantastic for sure.

[@klh3244]

I really enjoy watching you all. You have been showing some amazing places. Ride Safe!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks for watching!

[@danadiggins793]

Omg! I wouldn’t ever leave that spot!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

It really was nice for sure.

[@peterandkodiak9762]

Amazing clip really!!! I have been following your journey for awhile now and applaud you for riding motorcycles instead of a vehicle/camper. It takes more guts/risk as I also own a Harley and have been riding for 44 years. Plans is to hit the road but for a 5-6 month journey for now since I have a home base in western Washington. It gets very cold and rainy up here in the PNW, so I'm wishing you much safety and lots of warm clothes, sleeping bags and a good campfire. Some good warm coffee to boot. Be well.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks a ton!

[@lindagolden9892]

Possibly stopped pavement so as to keep a more authentic look to the approaching old mining town. 🤷🏻‍♀️ One is truly blessed to be awakened by joyful bird songs and the clean scents of nature. 🏕

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

That could be. It was beautiful camp spot for sure.

[@davidvance3527]

Great video. I'm looking forward towards my next trip out West, and your videos help me keep that spark alive. 👍😎

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Awesome. Thanks.

[@shaneman1861]

Another fantastic video.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@randalltom9750]

I used to live in Twin Bridges for 8 years, and loved the area... Virginia City is really fun. Ennis is a favorite too.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

We’ll keep that in mind. Another reason to go back.

[@TexRider]

Very nice camping site and the old mining town was cool. The Coleman stove works great. Good old food run haha Saddle tramp sent me over. Love the motorcycle camping stuff. Subbed ya for sure. Take Care

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

I love that ghost town so I made note of it for a trip. I just wish I could ride just one day with you two, AWESOME

Every time I watch your video's I get hungry.....Hope you get a chance to tour around Flathead lake, that is some very scenic riding in God's country.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Amen that area is beautiful.

[@Sixbears]

When tent camping my wife and I pack quite a few days of freeze dried food in case we don't want to head out of the woods back to a town. It's light and compact. Not the greatest but often better than a long drive.

[@m2014rn]

I just love your beautiful travels. Thank you for sharing with us all. I believe I'll have to get a sport touring bike in order to comfortably entertain some long-distance trips as you do. My current ride is entirely too harsh for the task. Safe travels you two!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks Mark.

[@benbirkigt493]

You guy's should get a pair of Binoculars if you don't already have some.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

I know. I’ve mentioned that to Chris. That would be nice for sure.

[@pastorlarry7470]

It is raining, God is saying go out and take a shower. LOL Now lighting strikes would be unique. Breakfast looked good. I don't think a HD was meant to ride down those roads, LOL, and it needs a bath. My wife would not last a day doing this, to be honest I think setting up a tent each move would get old. Great video I enjoy your videos.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

I agree that setting up and tearing down a tent everyday would get old and it's exhausting as well. We try to set up a base camp and stay there until we're bored and ready to move on. And yes - both of the bikes need a bath. It's amazing how dirty bikes get.

[@caroletomlinson5480]

I hope you got to Butte, there’s a Safeway there-I traveled through in July 2020. Wish I’d of known about the Garnett Ghost Town and National Parks pass then! But the Days Inn was great.

[@servicarrider]

Saw y'all on Saddle Tramp. Beautiful part of the country. There are a mountain of federal regulations on US Gov managed lands that cover road specifications, easements, ingress egress, types and usage, improved (hard surface), logging, fire, etc. That's a likely reason that you ran out of blacktop.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Thanks - we always wondered why we ran out of pavement.

[@judystreich4554]

Man, I love your vids! What brand of pants are you wearing, Richard? Looks like a pair I need! Thanks for sharing!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

These are the most comfortable pants. They are the Duluth FireHose pants. They are super tough. Thanks goodness I have not tested them on the ground sliding. But I’m pretty sure they would save me from a bad road rash.

Hey Chris, Greetings from New Zealand. We do a lot f motorcycle camping on our BMW G310GS bikes. We also have a couple of BMW 1200 bikes. I want to ask - have you dropped your K bike at all on this trip? I see Richard had the misfortune to do so, and I know how that feels and how he’s by a K1200 is to lift up!

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

No, I haven't dropped my bike yet - thank goodness!!

[@grounded7362]

Oh My, Cooking steaks at your tent site in grizzly country!! Something I have always done. LOL Do you know of any real good resources such as apps for finding dispersed camping sights?

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

We use 3. GAIA gps, iOverlander and Avenza gps. Avenza and GAIA have overlays that can be added. All are good at showing you Where you are not directions to get where you need to be. If that make sense. Hope that helps.

[@wflentge]

So Chris... how much work is it for you do do all this? Asking for my ife.

[@TwoWheelsBigLife]

Hmmmm... That's a good question. Short answer - just plan on everything taking twice as long as it would in a house - from cooking, washing, setting up the living quarters. It's not easy so you have to love what you're doing or you'll be miserable. Take a weekend trip and try it would be my best suggestion. You'll see first hand just how much time and effort it's going to take. But the fabulous riding, the places you'll see and explore far outweigh the discomfort (well, most of the time).
